Dubizzle Egypt Property Scraper - Any URL, No Login, $4/1K

Scrape property listings from dubizzle.com.eg, Egypt's largest classifieds site (OLX Group), from any category or search URL, no login required.

Why use this scraper

Dubizzle is the dominant property marketplace in Egypt, with tens of thousands of active listings across apartments, villas, offices and land. Real estate agencies, developers and market researchers all need the same thing: a current snapshot of what is listed, where, and at what price, without manually scrolling hundreds of listing pages. This actor turns any Dubizzle Egypt category or search URL into structured data in one run.

Pricing in Egyptian real estate moves fast, especially in new developments like New Capital City, New Cairo and Sheikh Zayed, where resale prices on the same compound can shift month to month as handover dates approach. A spreadsheet that is two weeks old is already stale for anyone pricing a new listing or evaluating a resale offer. Running this actor on a schedule against the same category or compound URL keeps that picture current without anyone on the team manually re-checking listings.

Overview

Point the actor at a Dubizzle Egypt property category URL (apartments for sale, villas for rent, offices for sale, or any filtered search you build on the site itself) and it paginates automatically, returning one record per listing with price, bedrooms, bathrooms, area, location and seller. A run of 40 listings (the default) finishes in under a minute. Cost is $0.004 per listing scraped, so a 1,000-listing batch costs $4.

Supported inputs

• Category or search URL (url) - any dubizzle.com.eg property listing page, including category pages (e.g. apartments-duplex-for-sale, apartments-duplex-for-rent, villas-for-sale, offices-for-sale) and any URL with filters already applied on the site (city, price range, bedroom count). Default points to apartments for sale.
• Max listings (maxItems, 1 to 300, default 40) - caps how many listings the run returns; the actor paginates through the category automatically until it hits this number or runs out of listings.

Use cases

• Real estate agencies - pull current competitor listings in a city or compound to price new units correctly.
• Developers - monitor resale prices in specific compounds (New Cairo, Sheikh Zayed, 6th of October, New Capital) to track secondary-market demand.
• Market research firms - track average price per square meter by city or region over time by running the same category URL on a schedule.
• Lead generation for brokers - collect seller names and listing URLs to identify active agents and agencies in a given area.
• Portfolio tracking for property investors - run the same compound or city search weekly to see which units sold (dropped off the listing), which got relisted at a new price, and how the asking price per square meter trends over time.

How it works

The actor fetches the Dubizzle Egypt category or search page you point it at and follows the site's own pagination to collect listings up to your maxItems limit. Each listing card is parsed into a flat record: title, price, currency, property type, bedrooms, bathrooms, area in square meters, street, city, region, seller name and a direct link to the ad and its photo. No login or session is required because the listing data is public on the page itself.

What makes this richer than the competition

No other publisher in the Store runs a Dubizzle-specific scraper focused on Egypt. The closest comparisons:

• constructive_calm/egypt-real-estate-scraper (2 users/30d) targets Egyptian real estate too, but a different site, not Dubizzle.
• rigelbytes/dubizzle-scraper (19 users/30d) covers the Dubizzle platform across motors, property, jobs and classifieds, but only for the UAE market, not Egypt.

This actor is the only one built specifically for dubizzle.com.eg property listings, accepts any category or filtered search URL (not just a fixed set of categories), and returns area, bedroom/bathroom counts and seller name in every record.

Notes & limitations

• seller comes back null when the listing itself does not display a seller or agency name; the actor never guesses a name.
• The actor follows only Dubizzle's own listing pagination; if a category has more listings than maxItems, increase maxItems or narrow the search URL (by city or price range) instead of relying on a single huge run.
• Only property listings are covered. Dubizzle Egypt's other categories (motors, jobs, classifieds) are out of scope for this actor.
• extraDetails varies from listing to listing: it reflects whatever attributes the seller filled in on the ad (completion status, ownership type, finishing level), so the keys present on one record will not always match another. Build downstream logic to read it defensively.
• Prices are posted in the currency the seller chose, almost always EGP; the actor does not convert currencies.

FAQ

Can I scrape rentals instead of sales? Yes, point url at any rental category, e.g. apartments-duplex-for-rent.

Does it need a Dubizzle account or API key? No, listing data is public on the page; no login or key is required.

Can I filter by city? Yes, build the filtered URL on dubizzle.com.eg itself (choose the city in the site's own filters), then pass that URL as url.

Why is seller sometimes empty? Because the listing itself does not show a seller or agency name on the page. The actor reports exactly what Dubizzle displays.

What is the maximum number of listings per run? maxItems caps at 300. For larger coverage, split by category or city and run multiple times.

Does it cover rentals and sales in the same run? No, Dubizzle separates sale and rent into different category URLs; run the actor once per category if you need both.

Can I track price changes on the same compound over time? Yes, that is the typical pattern: save the url for a filtered search (by compound, city or price range) and run the actor on a schedule, comparing each run's output to the previous one by url (the per-listing link, which stays stable while the ad is active).
